Hi, um new to the forums and here purely to ask a question of anyone whom might have an answer.

At my home address it seems that my IP has been banned from the server hosting this site (i also tried visiting least i could do and had the same problem.)

No idea why this might have happened since i only visit to read the comic. It happened a few days back this is the first time i've been at uni for a while to access the site and post this really.

If anyone has an idea why i may have been ip banned please let me know, likewise if there's anyone in particular i'd need to contact (i'd rather get the right person first then annoy them with emails)


On a similar note since this is my first post here... Hi everyone

Well, what was your old account if you had one?

I've enver had a forum account before this one. As i said before this problem all i've ever gone onto this site for was to read the comic which is why i'm kinda confused.

It is possible that a previous account had your precise IP address and that that one got blocked. But, to be honnest, there have been Verry few IP's blocked. We ususally just ban a person when needed...


G!

Well, here's one thing, if there is someone else in your family/house (generalizing here, if you live alone then I don't know what to say. huh.gif ) and they were doing something on here they shouldn't have, you need to smack them for ruining something you enjoy.

We need to get computers out of the hands of morons. x_x

It could be your parents also had the sites blocked, for whatever reasons.

Thing is, he's been server banned by IP, not forum banned by IP. There's a huge difference. It could be a glitch. It could be any number of things.

back again by the glory of proxy. Anyway just to clear a few things up

1: I'm living in rented accomadation, right now i have a static ip on my internet.
2: i'm the only person in the flat who reads webcomics,
3: Yes its a total ip ban from the servers.

All i can honestly think of is if there was a glitch or something. In which case who would i need to contact. I'm not really stupid enough to post my ip in a forum >.>

not after last time i did it anyway.
Kayhynn
Admins and mods can see the IP just fine on this one.

I'll find out who you need to talk to.

Post your IP anyway biggrin.gif
anywho i'd just try and find a way to change or hide your IP
(whys that sound like tottal crock when i say it?)

lol just clicked with me. Even if you can see my ip i'm accessing through a proxy atm, So its not going to be the blocked ip in the first place.

Also i would change my ip, but i'm on a static ip since i'm hosting a server from home, can't be buggered with all that fiddling about getting dynamic ip to work etc.
